Team news: Miami Dolphins | Page 3

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill, whose status is up in the air for Sunday, did not practice because of a hip injury. RB Raheem Mostert did not practice because of an ankle injury.

Related Players: Salvon Ahmed, Jeff Wilson

Miami's really getting ran through the wash on the injury report today. If Mostert is held out of Week 8 action, we can expect Ahmed and Wilson to split the backfield, with the latter more than likely being the majority receiving back. Wilson was eased into action in his first game off of IR, earning one target and four yards on seven routes. We should expect that to raise significantly if the Dolphins role into Sunday with only two active running backs.

One would assume that Waddle would absolutely eat with no Tyreek on the field, but we may see a wider target tree if the WR1 were forced out of Week 8. Berrios has actually ran the second-most routes on the team over the last two weeks, so he may end up being the contingency plan for fantasy purposes. We'll keep an eye on Hill's status through the rest of the week.

Jaylen Waddle, the third-year wide-out, suffered a back injury at some point during the early stages of the game.

Waddle tried to tough out the injury but eventually headed to the locker room early, walking very gingerly, and was deemed questionable to return by the Dolphins, the story pointed out. The story went on to say, according to the broadcast, Waddle was "on all fours" on the sideline at times and was wearing an electric heating pad to try to loosen up the injury. He was reportedly "yelling in pain" on the sidelines as well. The story also pointed out that Waddle had never dealt with a notable back injury during his career to this point. The good news was Waddle was able to return to the field in the third quarter, however, this is something owners will want to monitor this week.

The Dolphins activated RB Jeff Wilson Jr. off injured reserve.

Wilson had been on injured reserve since the start of the season due to the rib and finger injuries he suffered during training camp. Wilson helps add a piece in the backfield while the Dolphins are without speedy rookie De'Von Achane. Mostert is a top-10 option this week but Wilson will work his way into the backfield mix and is an interesting flex option in a week with six teams on a bye.

The sky is the limit for Mostert in almost in week that he's out there in this Dolphins offense and this week is somehow even more solidified. Ahmed is in consideration as an RB3 for very desperate managers.

Ravens’ WR Odell Beckhman Jr., LB Jadeveon Clowney and CB Marlon Humphrey are off the injury report for Sunday’s game in London vs. the Titans.

Beckham returned to action last week and converted four targets into 13 yards. He is now up to seven receptions and less than 80 receiving yards on the season, making him a safe cut. Flowers should continue to be fed as the most explosive option outside of Lamar Jackson on the Ravens offense.

Dolphins placing RB De’Von Achane on injured reserve due to his knee. Achane will now miss the Dolphins’ next four games - Carolina, Philadelphia, New England, at Kansas City. With the team’s bye in Week 10, he will be eligible to play Week 11 vs. the Raiders next.

Wilson remains a must-add off of waivers for teams with the space, while Mostert is an RB1 until further notice.

Dolphins RB De’Von Achane is expected to miss multiple weeks with his knee injury.

What started out as seemingly minor news on Monday about Achane's knee, has now turned into a possible several week loss for fantasy owners. Schefter added in his post that Achane is a candidate for IR as well, which would cause him to miss at least the next four games. The Dolphins are expected to add Wilson into the backfield mix with Achane exiting, and the duo of Mostert and Wilson will likely split up the workload. There's a chance Wilson, who is expected to come off IR (torso, thumb), is still on your waiver wire, and he will be a highly-targeted RB this week in your leagues.

“What [De'Von Achane's] kind of dealing with, it’s more of his knee, and we’re evaluating it. More information as it goes,” coach Mike McDaniel said.

McDaniel went on to say, “It was just something that we’re treating that we’ll get more information on. He was in and out of the game, standard rotation like normal. Then, he thought that he might have something, but he’s such a tough kid. It was kind of tough to read, so we need to evaluate more, and that’s what we’re doing [Tuesday]." The more you read the story and quotes, it was a whole lot of non-commitment. But it sounds like the team is going to monitor Achane over the next day and the hope is we learn more as soon as possible. The story also said Wilson could be close to a return, and we reported last week the Dolphins didn't need to rush Wilson back given the success of Mostert and Achane so far this season. If Achane needs to miss time, it's possible Wilson enters the picture.
